Lessons for Pumpkin: Patience

"Learning the value of waiting is a beautiful thing..."

Lesson for Pumpkin: Patience

We live in a society that does not function on "stove" time! Microwave mentality is what I'd like to call it. We must have everything now! Just think about it. Ever notice how ALL food tastes better prepared in a stove versus heated in a microwave. Our impatience in life has caused us to miss out on the quality of some many things...much beyond just our food choices.

Our lives are so short. When we are young, we're in a rush to be grown....once we are grown, we reminiscence about our youth and how foolish we were! Ain't that funny?! In a rush to get ahead.

Learn the power of patience Pumpkin. God can help to calm your fears and still your heart. Yes it's okay to plan ahead and yes it's okay to have goals but don't become so self reliant that you miss the awesome opportunity to lean on Him. Be patient!

It happens to Daddy and I are constantly reminded of how waiting gives so much reward in the long run. Trust us baby girl, be patient! For His timing is perfect and he will blow your mind if you let Him!

Sleep peacefully baby.

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. ~Philippians 4:6-7 ESV
